You Can't Pray the Gay Away

Brothers and Sisters
Prayer is a powerful thing
In these tryin' times, we pray
We pray hard
But. There are some matters
Where we would be better servants of the Lord
By acceptin' was it
And not botherin' him
Come on!
You can’t pray the gay away
You can’t pray the gay away
No matter what your preacher say
No matter what your preacher say
There’s no fighting DNA.
You can’t pray the gay away
Mama oh mama you can’t blame yourself
Just cause your baby boy took your high heels off the shelf
Daddy thought football would make a man of him
But now he spends all his time cruising the gym
You can’t pray the gay away
You can’t pray the gay away
No matter what your preacher say
No matter what your preacher say
There’s no fightin' DNA.
You can’t pray the gay away
Well the Reverend Bill, at the church of Christ
Says he needs reprogramming
That boy ain’t right
Send him off to camp where he could get fixed
Had the summer of his life
Never saw so many dicks
You can’t pray the gay away
You can’t pray the gay away
No matter what your preacher say
No matter what your preacher say
There’s no fightin' DNA
You can’t pray the gay away
You may not know it
But you know lots of them
Statistically speakin'
1 out of every 10
Every family’s got one
You might call him Auntie Fred
Mama says he harmless, lest he’s tryin' to give you head Awwoh!
You can’t pray the gay away
You can’t pray the gay away
No matter what your preacher say
No matter what your preacher say
There’s no fightin' DNA
You can’t pray the gay away
Hey! You can’t pray the gay away
Hallelujah
Bless your heart
